CHARITY. 


AIL,  Masonry  divine! 
Glory  of  ages,  shine 
While  time  shall  last! 
Where'er  thy  votaries  are, 
Let  Love  and  Peace  be  there ; 
Let  thy  good  works  compare 
With  ages  past. 

Great  mission  thine  below  — 
This  pilgrimage  of  woe 
Thine  'tis  to  cheer. 
With  open  heart  and  hand, 
Thy  sons  in  every  land, 
At  Charity's  demand, 
Are  ever  near. 


As,  since  the  Day  of  Light, 
Blazing  with  lustre  bright, 
Thy  star  hath  shone; 
So  may  its  brightness  send 
Joy,  gladness,  without  end, 
Till  Eternity  attend, 
And  Time  be  gone.

THE  MASONIC  TEMPLE. 

^he  Masonic  Temple  of  San  Francisco,  erected  in  the  years  i860  and  1861 
^-^  by  the  Masonic  Hall  Association,  is  the  only  example  of  pure  Gothic  aichi- 
tecture  to  be  found  to-day  in  San  Francisco.  It  fronts  160  feet  on  Post  street  ^nd 
75  feet  on  Montgomery  street. 

From  the  sidewalk  to  the  top  of  the  balustrade  is  79  feet,  and  to  the  tt  ,^f 
the  tower  is  139  feet. 

It  is  not,  of  course,  a  modern  building  in  the  strictest  sense,  but  for  comfort,

quiet  elegance  and  adaptability  to  the  purposes  of  the  Order  it  ranks  with  any  of 
the  greatest  buildings  of  the  City. 

As  one  enters  the  portals  of  the  Temple,  the  appearance  of  the  large  hallway 
produces  an  impression  not  soon  to  be  forgotten. 

The  oil  paintings  of  Past  Grand  Masters  and  Past  Masters,  on  the  walls, 
recall  to  memory  the  deeds  and  benefactions  of  the  living  and  the  dead.  There 
are  four  Lodge  rooms  in  the  Temple,  King  Solomon's  Hall  being  the  larg  st 
Masonic  Lodge  room  in  the  State.

Speculative   Masonry   Operating   on  Practical  Lines,  as  Illustrated  by  the  Brethren  of  the  Grand  Juris- 
diction of  California,  in  its  Construction  at  Decoto,  Alameda  County, 
California. 


ALJFORNIA  is  distinguished  as  the  "land  of  sunshine,  fruits 
and  flowers,"  and  as  such  is  preeminently  fitted  to  serve  as 
a  type  or  symbol  of  the  happiest  conditions  of  human  life, 
when  its  environments  are  pleasant  and  its  experiences  are 
enjoyable. 

L,ife,  no  matter  under  what  genial  skies  it  may  find  de- 
velopment, is  subject  to  vicissitudes  and  changes  with  invari- 
able accompaniments  of  sorrow  and  heart  break,  which  end 
in  distressing  bereavements. 

There  are  sections  of  country  over  which  ever  and  anon 

sweeps    the   terrific    blizzard,    emblematic   of  the    pain    and 

anguish    of  life's   pitiless   storms.       When    such    destructive 

forces  are  in  full  play,  the  unfortunates  exposed  to  their  icy 

and  death-giving  touch  would  gladly  avail  themselves  of  any 

shelter,  no  matter  how  unpretentious  it  might  be,  to  escape 

the  desolations  encompassing  them.     Who    would    refuse  to 

open  such  a  door  of  shelter  to  the  victims  of  the  blizzard  ; 

thus,    with    the    outstretching   of   succoring    hands    to   help 

those  of  our  kind  who  are  suffering  from  the  distresses  of  life  ? 

In  every  age,  and  amongst  all  peoples,  the  instincts  of 

humanity  have  found  more  or  less  expression.     The  perfection 

of  such  activities  is  the  outgrowth  of  the  culture  and  enlightenment  of  the  present 

age.     Eleemosynary  institutions  are  largely  the  product  of  modern  civilization. 

Hu  nanitarianism  voiced _itself  but  feebly,  even  amidst  the  splendors  of  Roman 


and  Grecian  dominancy.  In  those  ancient  days,  the  records  of  which  are  con- 
sidered classical,  sentiment  as  regards  the  unfortunate  found  but  little  pi  ic 
advocacy,  and  but  occasional  private  expression. 

Religion,  with  all  its  noble  teaching  and  impressive  ceremonies,  failei  to 
satisfactorily  exploit  itself  in  the  relief  of  human  distress.  The  crushing  processes 
of  life  went  ceaselessly  on,  like  the  remorseless  grind  of  "the  upper  and  new  " 
mill-stones  of  the  gods."  In  the  days  when  nations  found  quick  extinction  uuq.. 
the  touch  of  an  irresistible  tyranny,  and  the  horrors  of  war  were  the  common,  if 
not  every  day  experience  of  the  masses,  it  is  no  wonder  that  humanitarianism  was 
considered  a  poetic  thought  rather  than  an  actual  virtue. 

The  causes  which  ultimated  in  changing  these  harsh  conditions  were  numer- 
ous. All  large  growths  are  slow,  as  the  oak  in  contradistinction  to  the  cotton  wood 
tree  illustrates.  Thus  in  things  appertaining  to  civilization.  Development  was 
the  magic  wand  which  eliminated  from  the  barbaric  splendors  of  a  heartless 
dominancy  the  thought  that  to  be  great  the  weak  must  be  crushed,  and  the 
dependent  obliterated. 

What  a  contrast !  To-day  the  ideals  of  charity  are  crystallized  into  practical 
form.  Institutions  innumerable  are  organized,  equipped  and  maintained,  to 
brighten  the  lives  of  sorrowing  men,  women  and  children.  One  of  the  distin- 
guishing glories  of  the  present  civilization  is  its  care  of  the  unfortunate. 
Humanitarianism  is  finding  practical  exemplifications.  The  brotherhood  of  man 
has  become  a  fact  and  has  therefore  ceased  to  be  a  fancy.  Dreams  of  deliverance 
have  eventuated  into  actualities. 

Masonry  has  never  celebrated  its  successes  on  the  lines  of  human  helpfulness 
by  blare  of  trumpet  and  corresponding  shouts  of  victory.  The  Order  of  Free 
and  Accepted  Masons  illustrates  the  principle  of  unostentatious  charity  by  not 
letting  the  "  right  hand  know  what  the  left  hand  does  "  in  the  way  of  brotherly 
relief. 

The  Masonic  Brotherhood  of  California,  from  the  heroic  days  of  the  pioneers 
of  '49  to  the  present  hour,  has  nobly  discharged  duty  and  faithfully  met  obliga- 
tion.    The  record  of  their  benevolent  deeds  is  a  sealed  book  to  the  outside  world, 
and  will  only  receive  publicity  when  the  rewards  for  giving  cups  of  water  to  the 
thirsty,  bread  to  the  hungry,  clothing  to  the  naked,  shelter  to  the  homeless,  bal 
to  the  wounded,  and  burial  to  the  dead  are  distributed  by  the  Supreme  Grai. 
Master,  whose  benedictions  on  the  children  of  sorrow  illustrate  the  way  in  wb; 
His  Sons  and  Daughters  are  to  minister  to  their  unfortunate  fellows. 


The  beginnings  of  Masonic  history  in  California  are  full  of  romance,  and  will 
e\  constitute  an  inspiration  to  the  Brotherhood  to  quicken  them  to  the  noblest 
act'  vities.  For  many  years  the  hands  of  Masonic  help  extended  the  unfortunate 
were  unofficial.  These  hands,  however,  were  warm  with  heart  blood,  and  were 
in  a  sense  omnific,  for  they  did  much  in  alleviating  sorrow,  and  were  eminently 
ccessful  in  binding  up  the  wounds  of  the  afflicted.  The  records  would  doubtless 
disclose  when  the  first  official  benevolent  act  was  performed  by  the  first  Masonic 
Lodge  in  this  State.  It  is  not  ours  to  quote  from  such  records.  They  abound 
with  "  items"  which,  if  published  to  the  world,  would  amaze  the  populace,  and 
silence  for  all  coming  time  all  who  presume  to  question  the  benign  character  of 
this  Ancient  Craft,  which  is  so  in  touch  with  modern  life  as  to  be  fully  abreast  of 
the  vital  issues  of  the  closing  century. 


Brief  Statistics. 


^S  THE   State   developed,    Masonic    Lodges   multiplied    with 
responding  increase  in  membership.     To-day  the  Masonic  l 
of  Free  and  Accepted  Masons  of  California  under  the  junsd 
tion  of  the  Grand  Lodge  —  which  was  organized  at  Sacrament 
April  19th,  1850  —  makes  a  magnificent  showing.     Statistics  fc 
cold,   naked  facts,    and   never  voice  sentiment. 

The  minutes  of  the  Grand  Lodge  tell  the  story  of  numerical  growth  and 
Lodge  expansion,  but  remain  silent  as  to  the  loving  deeds  wrought  by  the  hands 
of  its  Craftsmen.     Such  deeds  are  not  chronicled  in   "song  and  story." 

The  Order  teaches  and  emphasizes  its  impressive  lessons  by  Degrees.  The 
foundation  principles  of  the  Fraternity  are  expressed  by  befitting  symbols,  and 
the  rendition  of  a  ritual  of  exceptional  rhetorical  beauty,  in  what  are  designated 
the  First,  Second  and  Third  Degrees,  or  Entered  Apprentice,  Fellow  Craft  and 
Master  Mason.  There  are  in  the  State,  at  this  date,  327  Chartered  Lodges,  6 
Lodges  working  under  dispensation,  with  an  enrollment  of  members,  July 
31st,  1897,  of  18,808.  A  creditable  progress  —  especially  so  in  view  of  the  fact 
that  Masonry  does  not  particularly  pride  itself  on  its  numerical  strength,  but  lays 
special  stress  on  the  quality  or  character  of  its  initiates. 

The  Degrees  of  Mark  Master,  Paster,  Most  Excellent  Master  and  Royal 
Arch  Mason  are  conferred  upon  Master  Masons  in  what  are  known  as  Chapters 
of  the  Royal  Arch,  of  which  there  are  in  California,  properly  organized  and  duly 
chartered,  68  Chapters,  with  a  membership  of  5,157. 

There  are  also  9  Councils  of  Royal  and  Select  Masters,  with  a  membership  of 

1.035- 

The  Order  of  Knights  Templar  is  a  distinctive  branch  of  Masonry,  and  is  in 
close  and  vital  touch  with  what  are  called  the  preceding  degrees.  Royal  Arch 
Masons  alone  are  eligible  to  receive  the  orders  conferred  in  Templar  bodies,  and 
the  rituals  used  in  conferring  these  degrees  make  frequent  references  to  persons, 
events  and  ceremonies,  identified  with  the  instruction  given  in  the  first  degrees  of 
Masonry.  The  Orders  conferred  by  the  35  Commauderies  of  Knights  Templar  in 
this  State,  with  a  membership  of  2,887,  are  known  as  "  The  Illustrious  Order  of 
the  Red  Cross,"  "The  Order  of  the  Temple,"  and  "The  Order  of  the  Knights 
of  Malta." 

The  Ancient  and  Accepted  Scottish  Rite  bodies  number  in  this  State  as 
follows:  Eight  Lodges  of  Perfection,  14th  degree  ;  four  Chapters  of  Rose  Croix, 
1 8th  degree  ;  four  Councils  of  Kadosh,  30th  degree;  four  Consistories,  32nd 
degree,  with  a  total  membership  of  4000. 

Thomas  H.  Casswell,  320,  a  resident  of  San  Francisco,  is  Grand  Commanu 
of  the  Supreme  Council,  Southern  Jurisdiction  of  the  United  States. 

W.  Frank  Pierce,   330,  Oakland,    is  the  Sovereign  Grand  Inspector  Gem 
for  California  and  Arizona. 


The  Order  of  The  Eastern  Star,  in  some  respects,  might  be  designated  as  an 
xiliary  of  the  Mason's  Order,  and  yet,  in  a  strict  sense  of  the  word,  has  no 
icial  connection  whatever  with  the  Fraternity.     The  wives,  widows,  mothers, 

hters  and  sisters  of  Master  Masons  are  alone  eligible  for  membership  in  .the 

r  of   the  Eastern  Star,    of  which  there  are  in  this  State  one  hundred  and 

•enty-seven  chartered  Chapters,  including  five  in  Nevada.      There  are  also  eight 

hapters    working   under   dispensation.      The   minutes   of   the   Grand    Chapter 

ported  a  membership  in  California,  July  31,  1897,  of  9,389.    Master  Masons  are 

admitted  to  membership  in  this  Order,  many  of  whom  regularly  attend. 

The  Ancient  Arabic  Order  of  the  Nobles  of  the  Mystic  Shrine  has  two 
Temples  in  California  :  one  at  San  Francisco,  known  as  "  Islam  ' '  Temple,  with  a 
membership,  June  1st,  1898,  of  750.  The  second  one  is  at  Eos  Angeles,  and  is 
named  "Al  Malaikah  "  Temple,  which  numbered  June  1st,  1897,  443  members, 
thus  aggregating  in  the  two  Temples  a  membership  of  1193. 

This  Order  has  no  connection  with  Masonry,  save  in  this  sense  that  the  pre- 
requisites for  membership  in  the  Order  in  America  is  that  of  a  Knight  Templar,  or 
of  a  thirty-second  degree  A.'.  A.".  S.\  Rite  Mason,  in  good  standing,  the  latter 
holding  allegiance  to  the  Supreme  Council  of  the  Northern  or  of  the  Southern 
Jurisdiction  of  the  United  States,  or  to  one  in  amity  with,  and  recognized  by 
them.  In  England  the  eighteenth  degree  is  sufficient.  The  Order  flourishes  in 
Arabia,  Persia,  Egypt  and  Turkey,  and  many  encouragers  of  its  principles  are  to 
be  found  among  eminent  men  in  all  parts  of  Europe. 

It  is  natural  to  infer  that  the  Masonic  Order  so  numerically  large,  with  such  an 
exceptional  personnel,  splendidly  organized,  and  in  many  respects  elegantly  housed, 
should  do  creditable  things  in  connection  with  its  benevolent  work.  The  records 
prove  that  the  Order  has  been  equal  to  its  opportunities,  and  at  the  present  time  is 
building  into  beautiful  form  what  we  trust  will  be  one  of  the  imperishable  super- 
structures of  the  State. 

Masonry  would  be  nothing  if  not  scientific.  Illustrating  geometrical  principles, 
it  must  of  necessity  work  in  harmony  with  well  defined  rules  and  regulations. 
This  is  strikingly  true  as  regards  its  benefactions  which  are  systematically  admin- 
istered. Owing  to  the  remarkable  expansion  of  the  Order,  the  methods  heretofore 
successfully  in  vogue  in  caring  for  the  unfortunate  and  bereaved  are  now  proving 
inadequate  to  meet  the  calls  for  sympathy  and  help  which  come  to  our  Craftsmen 
from  Masonic  households  made  desolate  by  the  calamities  of  life.  In  consequence 
of  these  multiplying  calls,  far  seeing  brethren  have  ordained  that  the  Fraternity 
must  have  a  Home  —  not  an  asylum  with  naked  walls  and  cold-blooded  ministra- 
tions, but  a  veritable  Home  —  in  which  its  worthy  beneficiaries  may  be  suitably  and 
comfortably  housed. 

The  initial  step  in  the  consummation  of  this  humane  purpose  was  taken  by  the 
Grand  Lodge,  at  its  regular  annual  communication  in  October,  1891. 

After  a  thorough  discussion  of  the  question  as  to  the  expediency  of  erecting 
.  L'ch  a  structure,  a  Board  of  Trustees  was  constituted,  consisting  of  Brothers 
Edward  Myers  Preston,  William  Francis  Perry,  *  Albert  Hanson,  ^Nathaniel  Green 
Curtis,  Jacob  Voorsanger,  *Gustavus  Longford  Speare,  Edward  Coleman,  *George 
Fjdmund  Whitney.

The  Site, 


■  r- 


,HKSE  brethren  were  empowered  to  proceed  with  the  work  anc- 
authorized  to  secure  a  desirable  site  upon  which  to  erect  suitab  -'- 
buildings  for  the  contemplated  Home.  The  Trustees,  after  care- 
ful consideration  and  thorough  investigation,  secured  by 
purchase  260  acres  of  choice  land  at  Decoto,  Alameda  Count}', 
at  a  cost  of  $34,000.  The  location  thus  selected  is  in  many  respects  an  ideal  one 
and  in  every  way  admirably  adapted  for  the  purposes  of  the  Home.  Its  elevation  is 
sufficiently  high  to  give  the  building  erected  thereon  not  only  splendid  drainage, 
but  to  make  it  conspicuous  above  the  surrounding  country,  not  only  as  "  a  thing 
of  beauty,"  but,  as  we  hope,  "  a  joy  forever.' '  The  environments  are  delightfully 
picturesque,  with  an  equable  climate,  free  from  fogs  and  malarial  influences.  The 
soil  is  rich,  and  will  prove  remuneratively  productive.  The  water  supply  is  of 
the  best  quality  and  practically  exhaustless.  It  is  within  a  few  hours'  ride  of  the 
Metropolis,  and  of  easy  access  from  all  parts  of  the  State.  The  beauty  of  the  site 
and  the  wisdom  of  its  purchase  grows  upon  all  who  familiarize  themselves  with 
the  same.  It  is  predicted  that  in  less  than  a  score  of  years  it  will  be  said  con- 
cerning the  brethren  who  selected  this  location  for  the  Masonic  Widows'  and 
Orphans'  Home,  that  "they  builded  wiser  than  they  knew." 

The  Trustees  in  due  time  had  plans  and  specifications  submitted  to  them  by 
the  leading  architects  of  the  State.  After  thorough  examination  and  conscientious 
deliberation,  the  plans  prepared  by  Brother  W.  H.  Lillie,  of  Golden  Gate  Lodge 
No.  30,  F.  &  A.  M.,  were  found  to  harmonize  best  with  the  general  features  of 
the  Home,  as  outlined  in  the  minds  of  the  Trustees,  and  were  finally  adopted. 

These  plans  call  for  the  erection  of  a  three-story  stone  and  brick  edifice  with 
a  finished  basement. 

The  First  Floor  will  be  occupied  by  the  Main  Office,  Ladies'  Reception  Room, 
Infant  Class  Rooms,  Nursery,  Sitting  Room,  Matron's  and  Trustees'  Room. 

It  is  proposed  to  make  the  Main  Hall,  Office  and  Ladies'  Reception  Room  the 
architectural  features  of  the  building. 

The  utility  of  every  portion  of  the  edifice  has  been  kept  in  mind,  and,  whc 
necessary,  mere  beauty  or  ornamentation  has  given  place  to  the  serviceable. 

The  Second  Floor  is  arranged  with  twenty-three  Sleeping  Rooms,  Sewir  g 
Room  and  Lavatories,  to  be  used  exclusively  for  widows  and  their  children. 


The  Dormitories  are  on  the  Third  Floor  and  are  so  arranged  that  the  children 
do  not  pass  through  any  portion  of  the  First  and  Second  Floors  in  reaching  them. 

The  Dining  Room,  Kitchen,  Laundry,  Heating  apparatus,  Servants  and  Old 
M  i's  quarters  are  located  in  a  separate  building  directly  in  the  rear  of  the  main 
-•structure  and  covered  and  connected  therewith  by  a  covered  veranda. 

The  building  is  fire-proof  throughout,  with  modern  improvements  and  con- 
veniences, such  as  are  necessary  to  the  health  and  comfort  of  its  inmates.  The 
finishing  throughout  the  structure  is  of  a  character  to  brighten,  and  so  far  as 
possible  to  relieve  the  edifice  of  the  look  or  appearance  of  an  institution.  The 
effort  of  the  architect  has  resulted  in  giving  to  the  building  a  home-like  look  which 
will  materially  add  to  the  happiness  of  those  who  may  be  glad  to  spend  their 
days  of  sorrow  within  its  genial  walls. 


The  Corner-Stone. 


OCTOBER   14th,  1896,  during  the  Forty-seventh  Communication  ( 
the  Grand   Lodge,    the  corner-stone  of  the   Home  was  laid   i 
R.\  W.\  Brother  Edward  Myers  Preston,    Grand  Master  of  Free 
and  Accepted  Masons  of  the  State  of  California. 

The  ceremonies  incident  to  the  occasion  were  exceedingly 
impressive  and  attended  by  man3r  thousands  of  Craftsmen  hailing  from  different 
parts  of  the  State,  and  adjoining  Grand  Jurisdictions. 

Felicitous  addresses  were  delivered  on  the  occasion  by  Brother  Charles  Lewis 
Patton,  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees;  R.\  W.\  Grand  Master  Edward  Myers 
Preston,  and  W.\  Jacob  Voorsanger,  who  delivered  the  oration  of  the  day. 

A  silver  trowel  was  used  by  the  R.\  \V.\  Grand  Master  in  spreading  the 
cement  upon  the  lower  stone.  At  a  given  signal  the  corner-stone  was  lowered  to 
its  place,  at  three  separate  intervals,  the  Grand  Honors  being  given  by  all  the 
assembled  brethren  at  each  stoppage  of  the  stone.  When  it  had  been  adjusted 
in  its  place,  the  Grand  Master  pointed  the  cement  about  its  edges,  and  followed 
this  action  by  giving  three  blows  with  his  gavel,  saying,  "  I  declare  this  foundation 
stone  to  be  well  formed,  true  and  trusty." 

The  ceremonies  were  concluded  with  an  oration  by  the  Grand  Orator  of  the 
Grand  Lodge,  W.\  Brother  Jacob  Voorsanger,  who  concluded  his  eloquent  address 
by  committing  "  the  designs  of  our  Architects,  the  labors  of  our  Craft,  and  the 
success  of  this  noble  enterprise  to  the  divine  care  of  the  Supreme  Architect." 

The  Grand  Lodge,  in  view  of  vacancies  in  the  Board  of  Trustees,  occasioned 
by  death  and  otherwise,  made  important  changes  in  connection  therewith,  so  that 
the  Board  at  the  present  time  is  composed  as  follows  : 

Brother  Charles  Lewis  Patton, 
Brother  Jacob  Voorsanger, 

Brother  William  Johnson, 

Brother  William  Frank  Pierce, 
Brother  Edward  Peabody, 

Brother  Thomas  Flint,  Sr., 

Brother  Edwin  Whipple, 

Brother  George  Hinds. 


At  the  Forty-eighth  Annual  Communication,  through  the  earnest  and  eloquent 
plea  of  Brother  Charles  L.  Pattou,  Grand  Senior  Warden,  the  Grand  Lodge 
appropriated  $20,000  toward  the  building  fund  and  commissioned  the  Trustees, 
,ider  the  leadership  of  Brother  Patton,  to  proceed  with  the  erection  of  the  Home, 
in  compliance  with  these  orders,  the  Board  of  Trustees  was  frequently  convened 
by  the  President  for  consultation.  The  Trustees  went  forward  with  patient  care, 
"  making  haste  slowly,"  and  carefully  considering  to  the  minutest  detail  the  bids 
submitted  for  the  construction  of  the  building.  After  due  deliberation,  the  bid  of 
Brother  R.  P.  Hurlbut,  of  Mission  Lodge  No.  169,  F.  &  A.  M.,  was  accepted. 
He  is  an  enthusiastic  Masonic  worker,  whose  tireless  energy  and  splendid  executive 
ability  has  given  him  high  position  and  enviable  reputation,  especially  in  connection 
with  California  Commandery  No.  1,  K.  T.,  of  which  he  is  an  honored  Past 
Commander,  having  served  his  Commandery  for  two  successive  years  as  its 
Commander.  During  his  second  year  as  Commander,  the  Commandery  made  its 
famous  pilgrimage  to  the  Triennial  Conclave  at  Boston,  Mass.,  where  it  received 
a  royal  welcome,  and  where  it  reciprocated  favors  received  by  entertaining  the 
Sir  Knights  of  the  United  States  with  unbounded  hospitality.  As  a  Contractor 
and  Builder  Mr.  Hurlbut  has  scored  a  most  gratifying  success.  He  brings  to  the 
work  of  erecting  the  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home  an  enlarged  experience, 
and  a  heart  in  en  rapport  with  the  plan  of  giving  to  the  Masonic  beneficiaries  of 
the  State  an  ideal  home. 


The  restive)  I  Idea. 


^ALIZING  the  importance  of  pushing  the  work  of  building  to 
completion,  and  feeling  the  necessity  of  devising  ways  and  means 
of  increasing  the  funds  for  said  purpose,  Brother  Charles  L.  Patton, 
Senior  Grand  Warden,  and  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
the  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home,  conceived  the  brilliant 
thought  that  a  Masonic  Festival  could  be  profitably  held  in  the  city  of  San 
Francisco,  which  would  not  only  be  a  great  credit  to  the  Fraternity,  but 
ultimate  satisfactorily  in  enlarging  the  building  fund.  His  suggestion  for  a 
Festival,  born  of  his  deep  interest  in  the  contemplated  Home,  bore  immediate  fruit. 
On  his  presenting  the  idea  of  such  a  Festival  to  California  Lodge  No.  i,  F.  &  A.  M., 
of  which  he  is  an  honored  Past  Master,  it  was  found  that  the  brethren  of  this 
Grand  Old  Lodge  were  in  perfect  accord  with  the  idea.  A  vote  of  endorsement 
was  immediately  taken  and  a  committee  of  three,  consisting  of  Brothers  C.  L. 
Patton,  Henry  Ascroft  and  Edward  Peabody  —  Past  Masters  —  was  appointed  to 
confer  with  the  various  Lodges,  Chapters,  Commanderies,  Eastern  Star,  Scottish 
Rite  Bodies,  and  Nobles  of  the  Mystic  Shrine,  of  San  Francisco  and  vicinity.  The 
conference  was  held  in  due  time  by  representative  members  of  the  above-mentioned 
bodies  who  were  appointed  by  their  respective  organizations.  These  delegates 
were  convened  in  King  Solomon  Hall,  Masonic  Temple.  Several  meetings  of  the 
committee  were  held,  the  final  outcome  of  which  was  the  decision  that  a  Masonic 
Festival  be  held  in  the  Mechanics'  Pavilion  the  second  week  in  May  for  the  benefit 
of  the  said  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home. 

An  Executive  Committee,  consisting  of  the  following  named  ladies  and 
gentlemen,  was  duly  constituted  : 

Charles  L.  Patton,  Charles  L.  Pierce,  Dr.  EdnaR.  Field,  Charles  W.  Conlisk, 
Mrs.  W.  Frank  Pierce,  Reuben  P.  Hurlbut,  M.  H.  Wascerwitz. 

John  Tonningseu,  Past  Master  of  Oriental  Lodge,  No.  144,  F.  &  A.  M.,  on 
account  of  his  well-known  executive  ability,  has  been  appointed  Superintendent  of 
the  Festival.  He  immediately  consecrated  himself  to  the  work  and,  from  the 
hour  of  his  appointment  to  the  present  moment,  has  labored  to  promote  the  best 
interests  of  the  Festival,  and  though  his  position  has  been  a  trying  one,  he  has 
acquitted  himself  most  creditably  and,  by  his  genial  smile  and  affable  address, 
inspired  all  having  to  do  with  the  selection  and  management  of  the  booths  to 
work  together  in  perfect  harmony. 

Brother  R.  P.  Hurlbut  has  been  appointed  by  the  Executive  Committee  Chair- 
man of  the  Memorial  Hall  Committee,  in  connection  with  the  Festival  held  in  aid  of 
the  Home.  All  moneys  raised  by  this  Committee  will  be  devoted  to  lasting  and  sub- 
stantial improvements  in  the  Main  or  Reception  Hall  of  the  Home,  consisting  of  a 
marble  staircase,  marble  wainscoting,  heavy  oaken  beam  ceiling  and  marble  floor. 


The  walls,  from  the  top  of  the  wainscot  and  extending  height  of  doors  are  to  be 
covered  with  ornamental  tiles.  Each  person  contributing  $5  will  have  his  or 
her  name  embossed  on  the  face  of  one  of  these  tablets,  2x6  inches,  which  will 
be  firmly  imbedded  in  cement  upon  the  brick  walls,  and  thus  serve  as  perpetual 
evidence  of  the  liberality  of  the  contributor,  and  remain  a  befitting  memorial  of 
the  brethren  whose  hearts  have  gone  into  the  superstructure. 

It  is  expected  that  the  expense  of  the  above-mentioned  ornamentation  will  be 
largely  met  by  the  sale  of  the  embossed  tiles,  and  by  the  special  contributions  of 
brethren  upon  whom  kind  fortune  has  been  munificently  smiling,  who  desire  to 
see  the  main  entrance  of  the  Home  and  its  principal  hall  beautified,  in  the  belief 
that  there  should  be  illustrated  in  the  erection  of  this  Masonic  structure  the  wisdom 
which  contrives,  the  strength  which  supports,  and  the  beauty  which  adorns. 

Brother  Hurlbut,  who  suggested  the  plan  of  introducing  the  memorial  tiles, 
is  giving  this  department  his  personal  supervision  and  is  admirably  executing  the 
same,  having  already  received  a  large  number  of  orders  which,  it  is  hoped,  will 
multiply  into  thousands. 

During  the  continuance  of  the  Festival  in  the  Pavilion,  a  committee  will  be 
present  in  the  Memorial  Booth  to  receive  contributions  for  the  tiles.  The  process 
of  embossing  the  same  will  be  illustrated,  as  a  kiln  will  be  in  operation,  so  the 
patronizing  visitors  can  see  how  their  names  in  golden  letters  are  permanently 
imprinted  on  the  tile.  The  services  of  artists  of  ability  have  been  secured  for  the 
proper  penciling  of  the  names  of  all  who  contribute  the  sum  of  $5  to  this  fund. 

Some  brethren,  who  are  always  on  the  outlook  for  opportunities  to  do  good, 
have  recognized  the  fact  that  this  tile  proposition  opens  the  way  for  them  to  honor 
the  name,  and  perpetuate  the  memory  of  departed  brethren,  whose  fellowship  was 
greatly  enjoyed  when  they  met  on  the  level,  and  whose  companionship  was  keenly 
relished  in  the  outside  world,  amidst  the  struggles  incident  to  active,  manly  life. 
Masonic  principle  teaches  us  not  only  to  honor  the  living  who  are  worthy,  but  to 
cherish  the  memory  of  the  departed,  who  are  too  soon  forgotten.  In  a  number  of 
cases  (not  necessary  to  particularize)  generous  brothers  have  subscribed  for  tiles 
and  ordered  embossed  thereon  the  name  of  some  deceased  brother — a  delicate  and 
expressive  way  in  which  to  voice  loving  remembrance,  and,  in  language  familiar 
to  us,  "  an  example  worthy  of  imitation." 

One  Past  Master,  appreciative  of  the  honors  conferred  upon  him  by  the 
brethren  of  his  Lodge,  has  suggested  the  thought  of  having  the  "Past  Masters" 
unite  in  subscribing  for  a  ten  or  twenty-dollar  tile,  upon  which  there  shall  be 
suitably  embossed  the  name  and  number  of  the  Lodge  in  which  they  have  honored 
membership,  and  the  fact  very  briefly  stated  that  said  tile  has  been  placed  in  posi- 
tion by  the  Past  Masters. 

A  capital  suggestion,  and  one  which,  it  is  hoped,  will  inspire  the  Past  Masters 
and  other  Past  Officers  of  the  Lodges,  Chapters  and  Commanderies  throughout 
the  State,  to  express  themselves  in  a  similar  "  perpetual  "  way,  for  these  tiles  will 


remain   in  position  while  the   Home  stands,   a  living  demonstration  of  Masonii- 
beneficence. 

An  elegant  lithograph  of  the  Home  in  thirteen  different  colors  will  be  offered 
for  sale  at  the  low  price  of  one  dollar  ;  this  lithograph  is  a  work  of  art  and  will  be 
suitably  framed.  It  would  grace  the  office  of  every  Mason  in  the  State,  and  it  is< 
hoped  that  every  Masonic  Home  within  the  Grand  Jurisdiction  of  California  will 
be  adorned  with  one  of  these  beautiful  pictures. 

Another  opportunity  of  contributing  one  dollar  to  the  building  fund  can  be 
improved  by  all  who  desire  to  have  their  names  chiseled  on  the  face  of  a  bright 
colored  brick  to  be  placed  in  position  on  the  front  wall  of  the  Home. 

These  plans  have  been  adopted  to  encourage  the  Craftsmen  of  the  State  with 
limited  means  to  make  contribution,  and  to  inspire  the  wealthier  brethren  to  give 
liberally  of  their  substance  in  making  the  building  of  the  Masonic  Widows'  and 
Orphans'  Home  a  beautiful  as  well  as  a  pronounced  success. 

The  Trustees  are  greatly  encouraged  in  their  work,  incident  to  this  Festival, 
by  the  hearty  co-operation  of  the  Lodges,  Chapters,  Commanderies  and  Eastern 
Star  organizations,  many  of  which  will  have  booths  in  the  Pavilion,  elegantly 
appointed,  to  further  the  plans  of  securing  building  funds. 

To  the  ladies  the  Trustees  are  under  special  obligation.  Their  co-operation 
has  been  hearty,  intelligent  and  inspiring.  No  great  cause  has  ever  been  pushed 
to  a  success  without  the  potent  influence  of  woman.  If  the  Masonic  Widows'  and 
Orphans'  Home  ever  becomes  an  imperishable  fact,  it  will  be  largely  due  to  the 
timely  and  efficient  co-operation  of  the  women  of  our  Masonic  households.  The 
ladies  organized  under  the  auspices  of  the  Lodges,  Chapters  and  Commanderies  of 
Knights  Templar,  or  connected  with  the  Order  of  the  Eastern  Star,  and  Com- 
mandery  Auxiliaries  have  not  only  tender  hearts  but  appreciative  spirits,  and 
apprehend  as  by  intuition  the  needs  of  the  hour  as  regards  the  Home  in  contem- 
plation. Backed  by  their  generous  gifts,  quickened  by  their  splendid  activity, 
and  inspired  by  the  timely  expression  of  their  practical  ideas  as  to  what  constitutes 
a  true  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home,  the  Trustees  are  advancing  with 
the  work  of  construction  in  the  belief,  that  in  due  time  the  fondest  dreams  of  the 
Brotherhood  in  relation  to  this  Home  will  be  so  incarnated  in  solid  brick  and 
stone  as  to  stand  for  generations,  not  only  as  a  monument  of  the  liberality  of 
California  Masons,  but  as  a  genial  Home  in  which  the  worthy  widows  and  orphans 
of  Masons  may  find  rest  and  comfort  in  the  midst  of  their  bereavement. 


Beneficiaries. 


HE  question  has  been  asked  :  "Who  are  to  occupy  the  Masonic 
Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home?"  It  is  said  that  the  phrase 
"Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home"  suggests  the  idea  that  aged 
and  otherwise  infirm  brethren  of  the  Order  in  this  State  will 
not  be  privileged  to  enter  the  Home  as  its  inmates.  This  is  a 
mistake,  for  provision  will  be  made  for  the  proper  maintenance 
of  male  as  well  as  female  beneficiaries.  The  query  then  as  to 
who  shall  find  an  abiding  place  in  the  Home,  so  far  as  the 
question  of  sex  is  concerned,  is  settled.  If  one  should  attempt  to  solve 
the  problem  on  broader  lines,  he  would  have  to  be  a  seer,  a  prophet,  or 
possessed  of  such  occult  powers  as  to  successfully  interpret  the  future  even  before 
its  shadows  are  cast  athwart  the  pathway  of  life.  Whose  vision  is  sufficiently 
penetrating  and  far  reaching  as  to  qualify  him  to  enact  such  a  role  ?  It  is  not 
outside  the  realm  of  the  possible,  even  if  it  does  not  touch  at  present  on  the  lines 
of  the  probable,  that  men,  women  and  children,  now  active  and  correspondingly 
prosperous,  may  see  the  day  when  they  will  be  glad  to  enjoy  the  shelter  of  a 
Masonic  Home. 

The  developments  of  life  are  not  always  agreeable,  and  seldom  if  ever  unfold 
as  we  desire.  Should  it  be  ours  to  enjoy  to  the  end  of  life  the  comforts  and 
delights  of  successful  industry,  and  find  within  the  precincts  of  our  own  personal 
homes  the  cheer  which  happy  family  life  alone  affords,  we  will  have  cause  for  con- 
tinual thankfulness.  May  this  be  our  portion,  and  may  all  the  allotments  of 
Providence  tend  to  the  consummation  of  such  an  end. 

For  less  happily  circumstanced  brethren  and  their  sorrowing  families,  we 
must  have  a  tender  heart  of  sympathy.  The  Order  to  which  we  owe  allegiance 
emphasizes  Charity  as  a  cardinal  virtue.  Unless  brotherly  love  finds  expression 
in  our  lives,  we  cannot  legitimately  claim  the  proud  distinction  of  being  true 
Masons.  In  the  interests  then  of  the  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home,  now 
in  process  of  erection,  prosperous  Masons  throughout  the  State  without  exception 
should  do  all  they  can  to  make  the  cause  which  presumably  lies  nigh  their  hearts 
a  blessed  success.  Effort  in  this  direction,  even  if  it  involves  sacrifices  of  time  and 
money,  will  tell  more  to  the  honor  of  Free  Masonry  in  this  State  than  the  "  letter 

perfect,"  and  otherwise  faultless  rendition  of  our  matchless  ritual.

CHARLES  LEWIS  PATTON. 

To  enumerate  the  many  services  rendered  by  Brother  Charges  Lewis  Patton,  in 
behalf  of  the  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans' Home,  would  be  an  impossibility  in  a  short 
article  of  this  character,  but  happily  the  thousands  of  people  interested  in  the  success  of  this 
grand  project  of  the  Masonic  Fraternity  are  already  aware  of  the  energy,  perseverance,  and 
self-sacrificing  character  of  the  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  Home.  A  Native 
Son  from  Sonoma  County,  Brother  Patton  received  a  good  education  in  California  and  finished 
it  in  Philadelphia,  from  which  place  he  returned  in  1885.  He  was  admitted  to  the  bar  in  1887 
and  very  shortly  gained  a  reputation  for  his  painstaking  analyses  of  his  cases  and  his  aggres- 
sive presentation  of  his  pleadings. 

In  all  the  transactions  of  his  life,  legal,  commercial  and  fraternal,  the  same  forcible  activity 
ensures  success  from  the  commencement  of  any  ot  his  undertakings,  wherever  success  is 
possible;  while  any  one  coming  in  frequent  contact  with  him  is  impressed  with  the  geniality  of 
his  disposition  and  fairness  of  purpose.  Brother  Patton  took  his  blue  lodge  degrees  in  Cali- 
fornia Lodge  No.  1,  in  1887,  was  appointed  Senior  Deacon  in  1891,  elected  Junior  Warden  in 
1892,  Senior  Warden  in  1893,  a°d  Worshipful  Master  in  1894.  He  was  elected  Junior  Grand 
Warden  of  the  Grand  Lodge  in  1896,  and  Grand  Senior  Warden  in  1897.  He  is  Past  High 
Priest  of  California  Chapter  No.  5,  R.  A.  M.,  and  is  now  Generalissimo  of  Golden  Gate  Com- 
mandery,  Knights  Templar.  In  the  Ancient  and  Accepted  Scottish  Rite,  Brother  Patton  has 
taken  the  different  degrees,  held  a  number  of  offices,  and  is  now  Honorary  Inspector  General 
33°  of  San  Francisco. 


W.  FRANK  PIERCE. 

Brother  PIERCE  resides  in  Oakland,  and  as  President  of  the  Blue  Lakes  Water  Company, 
has  his  office  on  the  ninth  floor  of  the  Crocker  building  in  the  city  of  San  Francisco.  He  is 
distinguished  for  his  personal  probity,  business  integrity  and  enterprise,  and  ranks  high  in 
the  affections  of  his  Masonic  brethren  throughout  the  State.  His  Masonic  record  is  an  hon- 
orable one,  and  by  his  devotion  to  the  pure  principles  of  the  fraternity,  which  he  has  splendidly 
exemplified  in  his  personal  character,  has  won  place  and  found  station  in  the  Order.  His 
Masonic  record  is  briefly  summarized  as  follows  : 

Past  Master  of  Oakland  Lodge  No.  188,  F.  &  A.  M.  ;  Past  High  Priest  Oakland  Chapter 
No.  36,  Royal  Arch  .Masons  ;  Past  Illustrious  Master  Oakland  Council  No.  12,  Royal  and 
Select  Masters  ;  Past  Eminent  Commander  Oakland  Commandery  No.  ir,  Knights  Templar  ; 
Inspector  General  33°  Ancient  and  Accepted  Scottish  Rite  for  the  State  of  California  ; 
Grand  Senior  Warden  of  the  Grand  Commandery,  Knights  Templar  of  California  ;  Member 
of  Islam  Temple,  Ancient  Arabic  Order  Nobles  of  the  Mystic  Shrine. 

In  these  several  exalted  positions  Brother  Pierce  has  shown  himself  to  be  a  workman  of 
superior  excellence,  and  one  who  has  never  had  "cause  to  be  ashamed."  He  is  a  genial, 
whole-souled  gentleman  and  in  every  respect  an  honor  to  the  brotherhood  of  Free  and 
Accepted  Masons. 


C.  W.  CONLISK. 


Brother  Conusk  is  a  native  of  St.  Joseph,  Mo.,  and  entered  upon  life  July  3,  1861.  He 
spent  his  boyhood's  days  in  the  place  of  his  nativity,  where  he  was  thoroughly  educated, 
graduating  in  due  time  from  the  State  University  of  Missouri.  He  came  to  California  in  1884 
and  settled  in  San  Jose,  where  he  soon  became  known  as  an  expert  accountant.  For  several 
years  he  served  creditably  as  the  Secretary  of  several  important  corporations  —  the  largest  in 
Santa  Clara  County.  In  1894,  the  important  position  of  Business  Manager  of  the  Morning 
Call  was  tendered  to  him,  which  he  efficiently  filled  until  within  the  past  few  months,  when  he 
retired  to  take  a  position  where  the  duties  would  be  less  exacting  and  the  labors  less  exhausting. 

Brother  Conlisk  is  a  member  of  San  Jose  Lodge  No.  10,  F.  and  A.  M.;  Howard  Chapter 
No.  14,  R.  A.  M.;  California  Council  No.  2,  R.  and  S.  M.  He  was  knighted  in  San  Jose  Com- 
mandery  No.  10,  K.  T.,  and  retains  his  membership  therein.  He  is  also  a  member  of  all  the 
Scottish  Rite  bodies,  and  has  held  important  offices  in  the  same,  being  at  the  present  time 
Grand  Commander  of  San  Francisco  Consistory  No.  1,  to  which  position  he  was  unanimously 
elected  on  its  organization  in  January,  1898. 

At  the  last  meeting  of  the  Supreme  Council  Ancient  and  Accepted  Scottish  Rite,  held  in 
the  City  of  Washington,  D.  C,  he  received  the  honorarium  of  Knight  Commander  of  the 
Court  of  Honor.  Brother  Conlisk  is  also  a  member  of  Islam  Temple,  A.  A.  O.  N.  M.  S.,  and 
is  everywhere  recognized  as  a  "  hail  fellow  well  met."  His  disposition  is  pleasant,  his  address 
affable,  and  his  friendships  abiding.

Rev.  J.  FUENDELING. 


Many  representative  clergymen  have  membership  in  the  Masonic  Fraternity,  and  among 
the  number  of  such  divines  is  the  Rev.  J.  Fuendeling,  the  well-known  and  beloved  Pastor  of 
St.  Mark's  Lutheran  Church,  of  this  city.  Mr.  Fuendeling  has  officiated  in  his  present 
pastorate  most  acceptably  for  fifteen  consecutive  years,  and  has  attained  a  most  creditable 
standing  in  ecclesiastical  circles,  and  is  recognized  throughout  the  State  as  an  earnest, 
Christian  gentleman.  He  came  to  the  city  of  San  Francisco  in  1878,  from  St.  John's  Church, 
at  •Wheeling.  West  Virginia. 

Brother  Fuendeling  is  a  member  of  Herman  Lodge,  No.  127,  F.  and  A.  M.,  and  has 
rendered  efficient  service  as  a  Warden.  He  came  to  this  country  from  Hildesheim,  Prussia, 
and,  though  he  has  not  forgotten  the  "  Fatherland,"  is  a  stalwart  American  in  opinion,  and 
highly  prizes  his  citizenship  in  the  land  of  civil  and  religious  liberty,  where  free  institutions 
are  at  their  best. 


Dr.  C.  H.  ALLEN. 

The  original  of  the  above  portrait,  Dr.  Cymas  H.  Allen,  of  Centreville,  Alameda  County, 
California,  is  a  native  of  the  old  Granite  State,  Vermont.  He  first  saw  the  light  of  day  Sep- 
tember 5th,  1833,  in  Orange  County.  As  he  grew  towards  manhood's  estate  he  decided  to 
enter  the  medical  profession,  and  as  a  preliminary  step  towards  that  undertaking,  he  entered 
the  University  of  Vermont  and  took  a  thorough  |course  in  medicine  and  surgery.  He  was 
graduated  in  1857,  and  after  ten  years'  eastern  practice  came  to  the  Pacific  coast  and  located 
in  the  beautiful  town  of  Centreville,  where  he  has  remained  ever  since,  although  his  practice 
extends  for  miles  around  in  the  adjoining  towns  of  Decoto,  Irvington,  Niles,  Mission  San 
Jose,  Newark,  Alvarado,  etc.  Dr.  Allen  became  a  Mason  before  coming  to  California,  but  has 
since  joined  Howard  Chapter  R.  A.  M.,  No.  14,  and  San  Jose  Commandery,  No.  10.  He  has 
always  evinced  a  warm  enthusiastic  feeling  towards  the  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home, 
which  is  only  four  miles  from  his  residence.  He  was  present  at  the  laying  of  its  corner 
stone  and  hopes  to  be  present  at  its  dedication,  and  in  all  probability,  as  the  years  go  by,  he 
will  only  be  too  glad  to  minister  to  the  inmates  of  the  Home  should  they  require  medical  min- 
istration. Dr.  Allen  enjoys  a  large  and  lucrative  practice,  and  aside  from  his  profession,  is  a 
prominent  [man  in  his  community.  He  is  whole-souled,  genial,  kind  and  philanthropic — in 
fact  a  courteous  and  refined  gentleman,  a  credit  to  society,  the  medical  profession,  and 
Masonic  Craft. 


F.  B.  GRANGER,  JR. 

Brother  F.  B.  Granger,  Jr.,  was  born  in  Alvarado,  June  26,  1855,  at  that  time  called 
Union  City.  His  father,  F.  B.  Granger,  Sr.,  came  to  the  Coast  in  1853  from  New  York  State 
and  was  engaged  in  overland  freighting  business  for  many  years  and  crossed  the  continent 
sixteen  times. 

Mr.  Granger  has  been  conducting  the  Riverside  Hotel,  at  Alvarado,  with  his  father,  for 
twenty  years.  He  received  his  education  at  the  Alvarado  school  and  at  McClure's  Military 
Academy,  Oakland  ;  after  graduating  there  he  became  a  teacher  and  had  charge  of  the  mili- 
tary department  for  several  months.  He  then  accepted  a  position  in  the  Recorder's  office  at 
Oakland  and  was  there  two  years.  He  then  went  into  the  hotel  business  with  his  father,  in 
which  he  has  been  engaged  for  the  past  twenty  years,  and  during  this  time  has  been  active 
in  various  other  pursuits.  The  father  and  son  were  the  first  ones  to  agitate  and  promote  the 
Dingee  Water  Works,  which  were  located  on  part  of  their  property. 

Having  been  a  member  of  Alameda  Lodge  of  Centreville  for  about  14  years,  Mr.  Granger

citizens  of  the  Athens  of  the  Pacific,  both  professionally  and  socially.  Doctor

of  the  most  extensive  and  lucrative  practices,  numbering  among  his  patients 
many  of  the  most  influential  and  wealthy  residents  of  Oakland.  That  the  Doc- 
tor's abilities  were  appreciated  by  his  medical  brothers  of  the  California  State 
Medical  Society  is  shown  by  his  election  as  one  of  the  Board  of  Examiners, 
which  position  he  held  for  several  years  and  lecturer  for  four  years,  and  still  fur- 
ther honored  by  being  chosen  President  for  two  terms — 1894  and  *895.  Doctor

Switzerland,  where  he  was  born  in  St.  Gall  in  the  year  i860.  He  received  his  early  education 
in  the  schools,  both  private  and  public,  of  his  native  town,  and  finished  at  the  high-school  of 
Schaffhausen  on  the  Rhine,  which  overlooks  the  famous  falls  of  that  name,  at  the  age  of 
seventeen,  and  started  immediately  for  California,  whence  his  parents  had  preceded  him.  He 
had  at  that  time  a  very  limited  knowledge  of  the  English  language,  but  that  obstacle  to  a 
successful  career  in  this  country  was  overcome  by  a  year's  course  at  the  San  Francisco  High 
School.  He  at  once  entered  the  medical  department  of  the  State  University  and  graduated 
in  1880.  He  then  located  in  Oakland  and  commenced  to  practice  his  chosen  profession.  In 
1890  he  returned  to  Europe,  spending  a  year  of  arduous  study  in  Berlin  and  Zurich.  While  in 
Berlin,  he  was  a  member  of  the  International  Medical  Congress  which  met  there  in  August, 
1890.     He  returned  to  Oakland  and  resumed  practice  at  the  close  of  the  year. 

In  1892  he  became  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Health  of  Oakland,  and  in  1895  Presi- 
dent of  the  Free  Clinic  in  Dr.  Woolsey's  hospital.  Dr.  Miiller  is  very  popular  socially,  is 
President  of  the  "  Deutsche)'  Club  ' '  and  a  member  of  Live  Oak  Lodge,  F.  and  A.  M. 


FRANCIS  K.  SHATTUCK. 

Brother  Francis  K.  Shattuck,  "The  Father  of  Berkeley,"  is  as  well  known  in 
California  as  any  other  resident  of  Alameda  County. 

Although  born  in  the  State  of  New  York  in  the  year  1825,  he  is  to-day  as  active  mentally 
and  physically  as  many  a  man  twenty  years  his  junior. 

Brother  Shattuck  arrived  in  San  Francisco  in  February,  1850,  and  at  once  followed  the 
crowd  to  the  mining  regions,  where  he  remained  for  about  two  years. 

Upon  his  return  from  the  mines,  becoming  convinced  that  Oakland  and  the  neighboring 
territory  offered  a  promising  field  for  an  active  and  successful  business  life,  he  settled  there 
permanently  and  to-day  is  one  of  the  largest  holders  of  real  estate  in  Alameda  County. 

The  town  of  Berkeley  owes  much  of  its  substantial  growth  to  the  active  efforts  for 
progress  and  improvement  of  Brother  Shattuck. 

Brother  Shattuck  is  a  member  of  Live  Oak  Lodge,  No.  61,  of  which  he  is  a  Past  Master, 
is  a  Knight  Templar,  and  has  been  a  member  of  the  Order  since  the  year  1854. 

He  has  always  taken  a  deep  interest  in  the  establishment  of  the  Widows'  and  Orphans' 
Home,  and  was  present  at  the  Laying  of  the  Corner-stone.

Col.  J.  D.  FRY. 

Brother  J.  D.  Fry,  one  of  the  most  widely  known  of  the  California  pioneers,  has  passed 
through  a  much  more  eventful  and  active  life  than  conies  to  the  lot  of  most  men.  He  was 
born  at  Ghent,  Kentucky,  on  July  15,  1849,  and  at  the  early  age  of  sixteen  years  was  appointed 
to  the  position  of  Deputy  Sheriff  by  his  uncle  General  Fry.  Four  years  later  he  was  elected  to 
succeed  his  uncle  to  the  office  of  Sheriff,  and  then  served  as  Recorder,  and  was  twice  elected  to 
the  legislature. 

In  1849  he  came  to  California  in  the  company  of  Wm.  Sharon  and  a  strong  friendship  was 
formed  which  ended  only  with  the  death  of  Sharon.  For  some  years  after  his  arrival  in  Cali- 
fornia Brother  J.  D.  Fry  held  the  position  of  Special  Agent  for  the  Post-office  Department,  on 
the  Pacific  Coast,  which  he  resigned  in  order  to  devote  his  entire  time  to  mining  ventures  in 
which  he  had  become  interested.  Later  on,  as  President  of  the  Crown  Point  and  Belcher 
"Bonanza  Mines,"  he  became  widely  known  as  one  of  the  most  successful  mining  men  of  the 
Coast. 

Brother  Fry  is  today  interested  not  only  in  mining  enterprises  all  over  the  Pacific  Coast, 
but  many  of  his  extensive  commercial  undertakings  are  potent  factors  in  the  present  prosperity 
and  development  of  California.

THOflAS  C.  HUXLEY. 


There  is  an  old  saying,  "nothing  succeeds 
like  success,"  but  to  achieve  success  requires 
perseverance  and  ability. 

The  successful  career  of  Brother  Thomas

amply  proves  his  possession  of  these  two  most 
necessary  qualities.

City  and  came  to  California  in  1875,  since  which 
time  he  has  resided  and  practiced  law  in  Alameda 
County.  The  large  number  of  acquaintances 
and  friends  gained  by  Brother  Huxley  during 
the  twenty-three  years  of  his  residence  in  our 
neighboring  county  is  ample  proof  of  the  appre- 
ciation of  his  ability  and  sterling  qualities. 

Brother    Huxley    was  Master    of  Alameda  Lodge    No.    167,   F.  and  A.

Being  a  close  student  of  Municipal  Affairs,  he  has  been 
and  is  working  to  secure  for  the  people  in  the  different 
sections  of  the  State  the  control  or  ownership  of  such  public 
utilities  as  gas,  water  and  electric  light,  and  in  this  line 
he  has  attracted  the  attention  of  the  entire  country  and  is 
now  considered  to  be  the  best  authority  on  the  Pacific 
Coast  on  Municipal  Government,  his  idea  being  that  all 
cities  should  and  soon  will  be  self-supporting,  and  that  taxes  should  be  done  away  with 
entirely. 

In  April,  1895,  he  was  elected  to  the  office  he  now  holds,  and  in  1897  he  was  re-elected  to 
the  same  office  without  opposition  at  the  polls. 

He  is  a  member  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  and  also  of  the  Masons,  belonging 
to  Oak  Grove  Lodge,  No.  215,  F.  &  A.  M.,  of  Alameda. 


SOLOMON  EHRMAN. 

Brother  Solomon  Ehrman,  of  Mission 
San  Jose,  a  member  of  Alameda  Lodge  No.  127, 
is  a  merchant  whose  successful  business  career 
has  made  him  thousands  of  friends  in  California. 
Born  in  Bavaria  on  the  4th  of  March,  1846,  he 
arrived  in  San  Francisco  in  September,  1863,  and 
shortly  afterward  commenced  his  business  life  in 
Mission  San  Jose. 

For  thirty-five  years  past  he  has  been  building 
up  his  merchandise  business,  until  to-day,  through 
his  energy  and  perseverance,  he  has  established 
himself  in  the  front  rank  of  the  mercantile  com- 
munity across  the  bay,  and  has  earned  the  respect 
and  good  will  of  all  who  know  him.    For  sixteen 

years  Brother  Ehrman  has  been  a  member  of  the  Masonic  Order,  and  over  sixty 
members  of  San  Francisco  Lodges  were  present  when  he  took  his  degrees. 

Brother  Ehrman  participated  in  the  ceremony  attending  the   Laying  of  the 
Corner-stone  of  the  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home. 


PETER  DEAN. 

PETER  Dean  was  born  in  England,  on  Christmas  day, 
1828,  and  was  brought  to  this  country  two  years  later  by  his 
parents,  who  located  in  Lowell,  Mass.  His  father,  Benjamin 
Dean,  soon  became  identified  with  the  commercial  and  po- 
litical interests  of  New  England,  and  was  one  of  the  first 
candidates  on  the  liberty  ticket  in  the  State  of  Massachu- 
setts. Peter  Dean  arrived  in  California  June  13th,  1849,  and 
immediately  commenced  mining,  which  he  followed  for  a 
short  time,  then  engaged  in  various  commercial  pursuits  in 
California,  Oregon  and  Washington.  While  engaged  in 
business  pursuits  in  Mariposa,  in  1854,  Mr.  Dean  applied  for 
and  received  the  Entered  Apprentice  and  Fellowcraft 
degrees  in  Freemasonry,  in  old  Mariposa  Lodge.  Having 
an  opportunity  to  sell  out  to  advantage,  he  did  so  and 
removed  to  Los  Angeles  in  1854,  where  he  received  the  de- 
gree of  Master  Mason,  in  Los  Angeles  Lodge  No.  42,  F.  and 
A.  M.  In  1862  he  located  in  San  Francisco  and  demitted  to  California  Lodge,  No.  1.  He  is 
a'so  a  member  of  California  Chapter,  and  is  Past  Commander  of  California  Commandery,  in 
which  body  he  was  knighted  July  10th,  1874.  Mr.  Dean  is  a  life  member  and  ex-President  of 
the  Society  of  California  Pioneers,  and  has  always  been  one  of  its  most  enthusiastic  members. 
His  standing  as  a  business  man,  and  his  reputation  as  a  financier,  is  shown  by  the  many  places 
he  has  been  called  upon  to  fill,  which  required  uncommon  business  ability  and  financial  acu- 
men. Mr.  Dean  is  President  of  the  Sierra  Lumber  Co  ,  one  of  the  most  extensive  enterprises 
of  the  Pacific  Coast.  Notwithstanding  the  fact  that  he  has  always  had  so  many  commercial 
and  political  interests  to  attend  to,  he  has  found  time  to  attend  to  Masonic  duties.  Mr.  Dean's 
brother,  Benjamin  Dean,  was  elected  Grand  Commander  of  the  Grand  Commandery  Knights 
Templar  of  the  U.  S.  in  1880. 


WILLIAM  E.  HALE. 

Wilwam  E.  Hale,  born  in  Hollis,  New  Hamp- 
shire, in  1842,  is  descended  from  the  well  known  Hale 
family  of  Revolutionary  times. 

While  Mr.  Hale  was  still  young  the  family  removed 
to  Princeton,  Ills.,  where  he  was  brought  up  and  edu- 
cated, working  hard  all  summer  to  obtain  enough  to 
keep  him  at  school  during  the  winter,  and,  in  the  ab- 
sence of  his  father,  owing  to  his  mother  the  rectitude  of 
principle  and  courage  of  spirit  that  have  characterized 
his  later  life.  He  came  to  this  coast  in  1861,  when  he 
engaged  in  mining  in  Placer  County.  He  then  went  to 
Virginia  City,  at  that  time  in  the  throes  of  the  Nevada  ' 
excitement,  entering  the  employ  of  Wells,  Fargo  &  Co. 
at  Gold  Hill,  and  afterwards  was  in  charge  of  the  ex- 
press department  at  Sacramento.  While  in  Nevada  he 
served  as  aid  on  the  staff  of  Gen.  Jacob  Van  Bokkelen, 
Provost-Marshal  for  that  District. 

In  1884  he  was  elected  Sheriff  of  Alameda  County, 
to  which  office  he  was  twice  re-elected,  holding  it  for 
three  successive  terms,  until  1891,  when  he  was  ap- 
pointed Warden  of  the  State  Penitentiary  at  San  Quen- 
tin,  a  position   of  great  responsibility  and  importance, 

having  some  1,300  convicts  under  his  charge,  and  the  selection  and  appointment  of  nearly  100 
officers  and  guards.  Mr.  Hale  is  and  always  has  been  a  Republican,  but  his  management  of 
the  Prison  was  so  successful  and  satisfactory,  that  in  1895,  by  a  Democratic  administration, 
he  was  re-appointed  for  a  further  term  of  four  years  as  Warden. 

During  his  term  of  office  (nearlv  eight  years),  but  one  escape  has  been  made,  and  that 
was  through  the  carelessness  of  a'  guard.  The  expenses  of  the  Prison  have  been  greatly 
reduced  through  his  efforts  and  careful  administration,  the  per  capita  cost  last  year  (1897) 
being  only  25  cents  per  day. 

He  is  a  member  of  the  Oakland  Commandery,  No.  11,  Knights  Templar. 


JOHN  D.  SIEBE, 

The  Popular  Assessor. 

Of  all  public  offices,  that 
of  Assessor  is  the  most  try- 
ing, as  it  is  the  hardest  in 
which  to  please  and  satisfy 
the  general  public,  but  not- 
withstanding all  its  trials, 
Mr.  Siebe  contrives  to  please 
and  pacify  all  the  disturbing 
elements  and  retain  the 
popularity  that  has  been  ac- 
corded him  for  years. 

Mr.  Siebe  believes  that  a 
public  office  should  be  con- 
ducted the  same  as  a  private 
business;  strict  economy,  at- 
tention to  all  the  details, 
rigid  enforcement  of  office 
rules  and  proper  attention 
and  courtesies  to  people  in 
which  they  come  in  contact. 

Mr.  Siebe  has  been  elected 
for  two  terms  of  eight  years, 
and  should  he  desire  re-elec- 
tion there  is  no  doubt  but  he 
would  be  elected  by  a  larger 
majority  than  ever. 


EDWARD  R.  SWAIN. 

Although  born  in  New  York,  Mr.  Swain  can  be 
considered  more  of  a  Californian  than  many  who  are 
born  here,  as  he  has  been  here  continuously  since  he 
was  two  years  old  and  been  in  active  business  for  over 
twenty  years. 

During  this  period  he  has  shown  in  a  marked  de- 
gree his  abilities  as  an  architect,  having  erected  some  of 
the  most  ornamental  and  imposing  structures  in  the  city. 
Among  them  may  be  named  the  H.  S.  Crocker  Building 
on  Bush  Street,  the  Hobart  Building  on  Market  Street, 
the  Holbrook,  Merrill  &  Stetson  Block,  the  Arizona 
Block,  the  W.  D.  Clark  Building  on  Bush  and  Battery 
Streets,  the  Golden  Gate  Park  Lodge,  the  handsome 
residence  of  W.  F.  Whittier  on  Jackson  and  Laguna  Streets,  and  [last  but  not  least,  the  new 
Union  Depot  now  being  erected  at  the  foot  of  Market  Street,  which  originally  was  designed 
by  the  late  A.  Page  Brown.  In  appointing  Mr.  Swain  his  successor,  the  Harbor  Commission- 
ers made  an  excellent  selection,  as  has  been  shown  by  the  many  improvements  and  modifica- 
tions he  has  made  in  the  original  plans.  Brother  Swain  is  a  member  of  California  Lodge  No.  i, 
F.  and  A.  M.  / 


ISAIAH  W.  LEES. 

Isaiah  W.  LEES  has  been  connected  with  the  Police  force  of  San  Francisco  since  1853. 
Step  by  step  he  has  risen  to  his  present  position  of  Chief  of  Police,  and  for  forty-four  years 
he  has  held  the  office  of  Chief  of  the  Detective  Bureau,  and  has  made  a  reputation  for  himself 
that  has  never  been  excelled  in  this  country.  More  than  any  man  in  the  State  has  Chief 
Lees  made  the  law  to  be  feared  and  respected,  and  it  is  altogether  impossible  to  compute  the 
amount  of  good  effected  and  crime  prevented  by  his  vigorous  administration.  What  Chief 
Lees  has  done  for  this  City  and  State,  it  would  be  no  easy  task  to  sum  up.  An  active  life  of 
nearly  half  a  century  in  the  most  exciting  of  all  professions  must  necessarily  contain  hundreds 
of  experiences  the  mere  recital  of  which  would  fill  volumes.  He  is  courteous  and  affable, 
charitable  and  kind,  and  a  credit  to  the  Police  force  of  San  Francisco. 

Chief  Lees  was  born  in  England,  but  brought  to  this  country  when  a  mere  infant,  and 
raised  in  the  State  of  New  Jersey.     He  is  a  life  member  of  the  society  of  California  Pioneers. 


ANNIE  KLINE  RIKERT. 


& 


HE  Stockton  and  Tuolumne  County  Railroad  —  which  is  perhaps  better  known    as 
the  "  Women's  Railroad,"  it  having  originated  in  the  fertile  brain  of  a  woman,  the 
formation  of  the  Company  being  her  work  and  its  main  officers  women  —  is  rapidly 
getting  to  be  more  than  a  paper  road,  as  ere  this  publication  goes  to  press  the  first  shovelfuls 

of  earth  will  be  thrown  up  and 
the  actual  work  of  preparing  the 
roadbed  for  the  rails  com- 
menced. The  whole  country 
through  which  the  road  will 
pass  is  thoroughly  enthusiastic 
and  to  a  man  are  lending  all  the 
assistance  in  their  power  toward 
its  successful  completion; 
the  city  of  Stockton,  the  water 
terminal,  has  had  a  number  of 
mass  meetings  which  were 
officered  by  its  best  citizens,  and 
at  which  material  aid  was 
promised. 

California  can  lay  claim  to 
the  proud  distinction  of  produc- 
ing the  first  woman  railroad 
president,  Mrs.  Annie  Kline 
Rikert,  who  as  a  business  woman 
and  woman  of  affairs  is  the  peer 
of  most  men.  Perhaps  the 
Masons  of  California  will  under- 
stand this  when  they  know  that 
Mrs.  Rikert  received  her  busi- 
ness training  as  a  young  girl 
from  her  father,  who  was  a 
member  of  the  Masonic  Fratern- 
ity in  Mississippi,  and  who  was 
honored  by  them  with  advance- 
ment to  positions  of  the  highest 
dignity  and  trust  in  the  Order 
in  the  confines  of  that  State. 

For  some  years,  Mrs.  Rikert 
has  devoted  a  great  deal  of  at- 
tention to  mining  properties 
and  latterly  has  secured  and 
located  some  valuable  gold  properties  in  Tuolumne  County,  among  them  being  the  Pina  Blanca, 
Mascot,  Big  Gun  and  Oro  Madre.  There  she  learned  of  the  value  of  the  mining  properties  in 
that  region  and  also  the  needs  of  the  business  community :  a  short  direct  road  to  a  water 
terminal,  which  would  give  quick  communication  and  low  fares  and  freights.  Stockton  on 
tide  water,  Copperopolis,  Sonora,  Soulsbyville  and  Summers\ille  make  a  straight  line  of  only 
sixty  miles,  with  a  very  easy  gradient.  This  proposition  grasped,  she  determined  to  build  a 
railroad,  and  ere  many  moons  have  passed  her  work  will  be  finished. 

From  a  business  standpoint  the  road  ought  to  pay  from  the  start,  as  thousands  of  tons  of 
material  are  needed  for  the  mines,  thousands  of  tons  of  ores  and  concentrates  will  come  out, 
vast  amounts  of  hay,  grain,  lime,  copper,  slate,  granite,  marble,  fruit  and  lumber  seek  trans- 
portation, and  a  low  freight  rate  will  still  further  extend  the  production  and  consumption  of 
the  country.  The  capital  stock  is  $i,coo,ooo,  with  shares  at  a  par  value  of  $100.  A  number 
of  prominent  business  women  are  interested  and  men  of  capital  are  taking  hold  as  an  invest- 
ment, which  will  probably  enable  the  road  to  be  built  without  bonding,  making  it  a  people's 
road  with  dividends  at  once.  The  officers  of  the  company  are  Mrs.  Annie  Kline  Rikert, 
President;  Jabish  Clement,  Vice-President;  Mrs.  Maggie  Downing  Brainard,  Treasurer ;  R. 
S.  Clarke,  Secretary ;  and  these  with  Hannah  Lewella  Lane  and  Mrs.  E.  T.  Gould  are 
directors.     Henry  A.  Brainard,  of  San  Jose,  is  Chief  Engineer. 

The  San  Francisco  office  of  the  company  is  room  i,  Grand  Hotel. 


EDGAR  D.  PEIXOTTO. 


The  successful  career  of  Brother  Edgar  D.  Peixotto 
has  been  one  of  the  best  examples  of  late  years  for  the 
younger  generation  of  California  to  pattern  by.  Having 
by  perseverance  and  hard  study  fitted  himself  to  enter 
upon  the  practice  of  the  law,  Brother  Peixotto  entered 
the  office  of  the  District  Attorney,  where  by  the  sheer 
force  of  his  strong  personality  and  legal  ability,  in  the 
four  years  of  his  term,  he  earned  the  reputation  of  a 
strong  and  conscientious  worker  for  the  public  good. 
Handling  the  business  of  the  public  commonwealth  in 
the  same  scrupulously  careful  manner  as  he  would  that 
of  a  valued  client,  he  became  known  as  one  of  the  best 
Assistant  District  Attorneys  this  city  has  ever  had.  Ow- 
ing to  his  rapidly  growing  private  practice,  Brother 
Peixotto  retired  from  public  office  to  devote  his  entire 
time  to  the  interests  of  his  clients,  with  a  well-earned 

reputation  in  both  business  and  social  circles  as  a  young  man  with  a  brilliant  and  promising 
future. 


WILLIAM  J.  BIGGY, 

The  New  Registrar  of  Voters. 

The  appointment  of  ex-Senator 
Wiuiam  J.  BiGGY,  to  the  office  of 
Registrar,  by  Governor  Budd,  is  a 
compliment  to  that  gentleman  of 
which  any  citizen  might  be  proud. 

It  means  a  clean  and  honest  elec- 
tion in  November  next — free  from 
Boss  dictation  and  manipulation. 
Mr.  Biggy  is  a  native  son,  having  been 
born  in  this  city  in  1859.  He  was 
elected  to  the  Senate  in  1892,  from  a 
Republican  district,  with  a  Demo- 
cratic majority  of  740,  and  his  course 
in  that  body  was  sincere,  manly  and 
patriotic.  He  is  Vice-President  of 
the  United  States  Laundry  and  stands 
high  in  business  as  well  as  political 
circles.

R.  H.  CLEMENT. 


R.  M.  Clement,  the  present  efficient  City  Engineer 
of  the  city  of  Oakland,  is  a  Native  Son  and  was  born 
at  Illinois  Town,  Placer  County,  California,  March  30, 
1865.  He  is  the  son  of  L.  M.  Clement  of  Oakland,  who 
for  many  years  past  has  been  the  Chief  Consulting  En- 
gineer for  the  Pacific  Improvement  Company.  Mr. 
Clement  received  his  education  in  the  public  schools  of 
Oakland  and  prepared  himself  for  his  life  work  of  Civil 
Engineer  at  the  Massachusetts  Institute  of  Technology. 
He  is  a  great  lover  of  athletic  sports,  and  this,  together 
with  his  genial,  whole-souled  manner,  has  made  him  a 
favorite  with  the  young  men  of  his  own  age.  After 
finishing  his  work  at  the  Institute  of  Technology,  he 
entered  the  employ  of  the  Pacific  Improvement  Com- 
pany and  spent  several  years  in  the  construction  of  cable 
roads  in  San  Francisco,  and  was  in  charge  of  the  work 
during  the  construction  of  the  Telegraph  Avenue  Elec- 
tric Road.  He  is  a  gentleman  of  exceptional  ability,  and  is  sure  to  rank  with  the  best 
in  his  profession  of  Engineering. 


In  spite  of  the  fact  that  election  day  is  still  far  distant,  and  that  delegates  to 
conventions  are  not  yet  even  named,  there  are  certain  nominations  which  it  would 
seem  must  naturally  go  to  given  aspirants.  Of  course,  the  appearance  of  certainty 
in  this  connection  should  not  lull  the  friends  of  such  fortunates  to  sleep,  but  should 
rather  encourage  them  to  make  sure  of  that  which  seems  inevitable.  Probably 
the  nomination  which  is  most  merited  and  therefore  seems  most  natural  and  certain, 
is  that  of  the  Hon.  T.  B.  McFar land  to  succeed  himself  as  Associate  Justice  of  the 
Supreme  Court.  His  career  as  a  judge  has  been  marked  by  a  rugged  bravery, 
which,  coupled  with  his  experience  and  learning,  have  given  peculiar  force  and 
value  to  his  opinions.  He  has  passed  the  noon-day  of  life,  and  this  will  probably 
be  the  last  time  he  will  ever  ask  office  or  preferment  from  his  party  or  the  people. 
While  he  has  grown  gray  in  the  service,  his  vigor  remains  unimpaired.  The  im- 
pression prevails  among  men  who  keep  in  touch  with  public  opinion,  that  the 
nomination  of  Judge  McFarland  would  add  great  strength  to  the  ticket.  He  is  well 
known  throughout  the  State,  and,  better  still,  enjoys  to  a  high  degree  the  confi- 
dence of  his  associates  and  the  profession  generally.  One  of  the  strongest  testi- 
monials that  can  be  given  to  a  judge  who  has  served  for  a  long  period  upon  the 
bench,  is  that  he  is  poor.  The  salary  of  our  judiciary  is  wholly  inadequate  to  the 
services  performed,  and  Judge  McFarland,  although  a  man  of  frugal  habits,,  is 
probably  not  worth  a  dollar  more  to-day  than  when  he  first  took  seat  upon  the 
bench. — 5".  F.   Wave.

and  high  integrity  is  firmly  established. 


Charles  T.  Wilder,  the  Consul  of  the 
Hawaiian  Republic,  is  very  likely  to  become  a 
personage  of  great  importance  to  the  public  eye, 
in  the  event  of  the  annexation  of  the  Hawaiian 
Islands. 

He  was  born  in  Illinois  on  July  12th,  1866, 
and  was  brought  by  his  parents  to  the  Hawaiian 
Islands  in  1869. 

He  was  appointed  Hawaiian  Consul  General 
by  President  Dole  in  1893,  and  before  that  time 
he  had  held  several  positions  of  importance  with 
the  Wilder  Steamship  Co.,  Wilder  &  Co.,*" and 
the  Kahului  Railroad  Co.  As  Hawaiian  Consul 
Mr.  Wilder  has  been  thrown  in  contact  with  all 
among  whom    his    reputation    for  ability,  courtesy, 


Dr.  OSCAR  O.  BURGESS. 

Dr.  Oscar  O.  Burgess  enjoys 
a  practice  that  is  one  of  the  most 
extensive  of  any  physician  in  San 
Francisco.  He  is  President  of  the 
State  Medical  Society  and  a  lead- 
ing member  of  many  other  medical 
institutions. 

Dr.  Burgess  was  born  in  Erie 
County,  New  York,  in  1831,  and 
after  receiving  a  good  education, 
commenced  the  practice  of  medi- 
cine in  that  State.  He  came  to 
California  about  thirty  years  ago, 
and,  owing  to  his  thorough  knowl- 
edge of  his  profession,  he  succeeded 
in  building  up  a  good  practice  and 
in  making  a  great  number  of  strong 
friends,  both  professionally  and 
socially.

OLOMON,  in  all  his  glory  of  pomp  and  circumstance,  was  not  better  arrayed  than  his 
§\  followers  in  temple  building  in  the  potentialities  of  Faith,  Hope  and  Charity.  Our  tra- 
dition leads  us  back  to  the  construction  of  the  Temple.  The  succession  is  both  opera- 
tive and  speculative,  and  the  searcher  for  truth  will  early  arrive  at  the  conclusion  that 
the  beginning  of  all  craftship  is  found  in  the  beautiful  ceremonies  of  the  Ancient 
Mysteries.  Death  and  resurrection,  destruction  and  rehabilitation,  corruption  and 
were  as  surely  taught  by  the  Egyptians  and  Elusinians,  and  "the  tribes  beyond  the 
the  unexplored  wilds  of  India,  as  under  the  civilization  of  the  New  Dispensation. 
And  the  re-incarnating  belief  of  modern  theosophy  is  but  a  rhapsody  of  thought  that  comes 
by  mysterious  agency  from  the  belief  of  ages  agone.  When  Solomon  was  the  wisest  man  and  prince  on 
earth  the  Ancient  Mysteries  flourished.  They  were  patronized  by  the  great  and  learned  long  before  David 
was  informed  by  the  Lord  that  his  unborn  son  should  build  Him  an  house  in  Jerusalem  wherein  the  Shekinah 
should  forever  dwell.  It  is  fair  to  assume  that  Solomon  was  a  patron  of  those  mysteries  which  find  a 
counterpart  in  the  ceremonies  of  our  lodge,  chapter,  council,  and  bodies  of  the  Scottish  Rite.  So,  our  specu- 
lative minds  may  readily  make  a  sure  foundation  of  the  stones  that  were  "  hewn,  squared  and  numbered  in 
the  quarry,"  and  of  "  the  cedars  that  were  felled  in  the  forests  of  Lebanon."  The  lapse  of  time  from  the 
dedication  of  the  Temple  to  the  adoption  of  our  beautiful,  thoughtful  and  helpful  speculative  Masonry,  was 
a  long  operative  period,  around  which  was  thrown  mystery  and  exclusiveness.  Succeeding  the  dawn  of 
Christianity,  and  through  the  dark  and  middle  ages,  architecture  was  entirely  confided  to  churchly  keeping. 
The  Monks  not  only  designed  and  planned,  but  constructed  as  well,  and  the  earlier  edifices  that  still  are  the 
admiration  of  the  world  were  their  handiwork.  In  the  fourteenth  century  the  demand  for  operative  Masonry 
was  so  great  that  laymen  were  instructed  as  apprentices,  and,  in  time,  becoming  fellows  and  masters,  they 
organized  into  bands  or  societies  and  journeyed  from  country  to  country,  erecting  cathedrals,  abbeys,  castles 
and  citadels,  which  still  survive  the  ravages  of  time  and  war.  These  wandering  architects  and  builders  had 
a  form  or  ceremony  of  initiation  familiarly  like  some  things  we  know.  It  is  of  record  that  in  a  German 
"  hutten,"  or  lodge,  of  operative  stone  masons,  in  the  fifteenth  century,  a  cutter's  table  was  in  the  center  of 
the  room,  upon  which  was  a  copy  of  the  holy  writings,  together  with  the  workman's  tools,  the  square  and 
compass.  So  they  builded  and  guilded  until  the  desire  to  participate  in  the  pleasures  and  advantages  of  the 
lodge  grew  apace,  and  the  doors  were  swung  open  for  the  admission  of  those  unskilled  in  the  workmanship 
of  the  craft.  Thus  operative  Masonry  was  succeeded  by  speculative,  and  for  two  centuries  we  have  been 
"  speculative  Masons  only."  As  the  fraternity  multiplied  in  numbers  and  developed  in  influence,  the  grand 
characteristics  of  our  Order  became  landmarks  that  point  a  good  beginning,  a  present  essence  and  a  future 
being.  "And  the  greatest  of  these  characteristics  is  Charity."  Masonry  is  not  an  enforced  benefit.  Its 
benefactions,  and  remembrances,  and  charities  are  purely  voluntary  Thus  is  it  practical  in  its  helpfulness; 
and,  from  such  impelling  motives  of  brotherly  love  is  woven  the  mighty  fabric  in  every  State  and  Territory 
of  the  Republic,  co-existent  in  good  fellowship  with  our  craftship  in  every  land  beneath  the  sun.  "  Charity 
begins  at  home,"  and  most  truly  and  eloquently  does  Masonic  good  will  and  universal  benevolence  find 
expression  in  the  erection  and  maintenance  of  "Homes"  for  our  unfortunate  brethren  and  their  families. 
New  York,  Kentucky,  Ohio,  and  other  States,  have  established  their  Homes  in  permanency,  and  are  shower- 
ing blessings  by  the  wayside.  California  Masonry  began  its  good  work  in  "the  days  of  old,  the  days  of 
gold,"  and  in  that  rugged  and  romantic  beginning  the  characteristic  of  charity  was  so  firmly  established, 
that  during  the  half  century  of  its  praiseworthy  life  the  millions  it  has  dispensed  for  charity  have,  in  the 
aggregate,  exceeded  the  total  charitable  expenditures  of  many  of  the  older  States.  The  desire  to  do  still 
more,  and  become  broader  in  the  sphere  of  usefulness,  suggested  the  erection  of  the  Widows'  and  Orphans' 
Home  at  Decoto,  the  completion  of  which  is  assured  by  the  success  of  the  magnificent  Masonic  Festival. 
A  contemplation  of  the  unparalleled  record  of  California  Masonry  led  to  the  thought  and  desire  of  celebrat- 
ing the  semi-centennial  of  the  Order  in  this  State  by  a  compilation  of  its  glories  and  efforts  into  a  volume  to 
be  preserved  in  the  archives  of  lodge  and  home,  as  a  memento  of  vigorous  growth  and  development.  So  it 
was  that  from  the  suggestion  has  risen  the  monumental  undertaking  entitled  "  Fifty  Years  of  Masonry  in 
California"  (a  Masonic  History),  a  work  which,  for  scope  of  fraternity  research,  painstaking  effort,  artistic 
endeavor,  beauty  of  conception,  and  elegance  of  production,  has  not  been  equalled  in  this  or  any  other 
country.  Major  Edwin  A.  Sherman,  the  venerable  Secretary  of  the  Masonic  Veteran  Association  of  the 
Pacific  Coast,  is  the  Editor,  and  it  is  issued  in  monthly  parts.  It  is  sold  only  by  subscription  and  the  edition 
is  limited.  This  work  is  published  by  the  -well-known  printing  and  publishing  firm  of  Geo.  Spaulding  &  Co., 
414  Clay  Street,  San  Francisco,  California.

THE  LADIES'  CALIFORNIA  DRILL  CORPS. 

When  the  idea  of  the  Masonic  Festival  was  first  projected,  the  daughters  of  the  members 
of  California  Commandery,  No.  i,  K.  T.,  immediately  enthused,  and  were  speedily  organized 
as  a  Drill  Corps  to  give  an  Exhibition  Drill  at  the  Pavilion,  Friday  evening,  May  13th,  1898, 
in  aid  of  the  Masonic  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home. 

The  Corps  is  elegantly  uniformed,  and  instead  of  being  equipped  with  sword  and  buckler, 
each  young  lady  will  carry  an  American  flag.  The  tactics  of  the  drill  are  new,  the  evolutions 
are  brilliant  and  captivating. 

Mrs.  S.J.  Ewing,  Captain;  Miss  Bessie  Warren,  First  Lieutenant;  Miss  Martha  Korbell, 
Second  Lieutenant;  Mrs.  J.  F.  Clark,  Secretary;  Miss  Josephine  Hromada,  Commissary.

^^dBStiKn.  proprietors  of  "The  noo" 

■Pr^w  Cafe  and  Oyster  Grotto,  at 

■L  iioo     Market    Street,    this 

■p      ^ggtft  City,   is   composed   of  Ike 

W.'Stanley  and  J.  J.  Sheri- 
V  ^  dan.      Mr.  Stanley  is  a  Na- 

tive Son  of  Eldorado  Coun- 
ty, and  is  a  member  of  Cali- 
fornia Parlor  No.  i,  N.S.G. 
W.  He  is  not  only  well 
known  in  this  city  in  con- 
nection with  his  present 
business,  but  as  former  co- 
partner with  Mr.  J.  P.  Gal- 
lagher in  the  New  Western  Hotel.  His  many  friends  in  Eldorado  and  Amador  Counties,  this 
State,  and  Portland,  Oregon,  all  testify  to  his  integrity  and  popularity.  Mr.  J.  J.  Sheridan, 
although  not  a  Native  of  this  State,  has  been  located  herejfor  a  number  of  years.  He  is  well 
and  favorably  known,  not  only  in  this  City  but  also  in  Tuolumne  County,  and  Portland,  Ore- 
gon, and  is  a  member  of  Portland  Lodge  No.  142,  B.  P.  O.  E. 

The  success  these  gentlemen  have  achieved  since  forming  a  co-partnership  in  December, 
1897,  is  a  sufficient  guarantee  of  the  esteem  in  which  both  are  held  by  their  friends  and 
patrons. 

H.  W.  HUNSAKER,  M.D. 

Dr.  Hunsaker  was  born  in  Contra  Costa  County, 
January  22,  1863.  In  1887  he  entered  the  office  of  the 
distinguished  specialist,  Frank  Cornwall,  M.  D.,  and  at 
the  same  time  matriculated  at  the  California  Medical 
College,  from  which  he  was  graduated  in   1890. 

While  usually  known  as  a  general  practitioner,  Doctor 
Hunsaker 's  long  association  with  Dr.  Cornwall  gave  him 
a  wide  acquaintance  with  the  special  field  devoted  to  the 
eye,  ear,  nose  and  throat. 

He  is  at  present  Professor  of  Osteology  and  Lecturer 
on  Splanchnology  in  the  California  Medical  College,  and 
is,  of  course,  a  member  of  the  State  and  local  Eclectic 
Medical  Societies.  He  is  a  member  of  Pacific  Parlor,  N.  S. 
G.  W.,  and  has  been  its  Examining  Physician  for  a  year 
and  a  half.

COLLEGE  of  OSTEOPATHY 

Organized  and  chartered  under  the  law  s>f  the 
State  of  California,  April,  1898. 

The  purposes  for  which  this  corporation 
is  formed  are  to  carry  on  and  conduct  an 
institution  of  learning  in  the  city  and  county 
of  San  Francisco,  State  of  California,  the 
design  being  to  conduct  said  institution  as 
a  college  with  various  departments,  wherein 
shall  be  taught:  Osteopathy,  Anatomy, 
Physiology,  Pathology,  Chemistry,  Toxicol- 
Dr.  NOB.  ogy,  Histology,  Physical  and  Mental  Diag-  ">A  E.  NOE. 

noses,  Minor  and  Orificial  Surgery,  Pedology,  Obstetrics,  Gynecology,  and  the  scientific  treatment  of  all 
physical,  nervous  and  mental  diseases  and  to  give  instructions  pertaining  to  the  laws  which  promote  physical 
and  mental  development  and  health. 

A.  T.  Noe,  M.  D.,  D.  0.,  has  been  chosen  as  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees,  and  President  of  the 
College.    Ida  E.  Noe,  M.  S.,  Secretary  of  the  Board  of  Trustees,  and  of  the  College. 

Osteopathy  is  a  science  that  treats  diseases  without  drugs,  by  skillfully  adjusting  the  bones,  muscles, 
and  ligaments  of  our  anatomy,  so  as  to  relieve  friction  or  tension  from  the  nerves,  blood-vessels  and  lym- 
phatics, so  nature  can  carry  on  her  work  as  the  Creator  has  ordained.  To  be  able  to  treat  successfully, 
one  has  to  have  a  thorough  knowledge  of  Anatomy,  Physiology,  and  the  chemical  composition  of  .the  body 
and  be  drilled  in  Osteopathic  Philosophy.

A  FEW  REMARKS. 

DONATIONS  —  It  was  the  original  intention  to  publish  in  this  work  the  names  of  all  who 
have  made  donations  of  whatsoever  nature  to  the  Festival,  but  as  donations 
were  still  coming  in  as  this  book  went  to  press,  it  was  considered  unwise  and 
unjust  to  publish  only  a  partial  list.  A  complete  list  of  the  donations  will  be 
issued  by  the  Executive  Committee  in  their  official  report  at  the  close  of  the 
Festival,  and  will  be  widely  distributed,  not  only  in  California,  but  all  over 
the  United  States  as  well.  All,  without  exception,  who  have  contributed 
towards  the  support  of  the  Widows'  and  Orphans'  Home,  will  be  given  the 
credit  due  them. 


THANKS  —  Are  due  to  the  Overland  Monthly  and  the  Berkeley  Evening  World  for  engrav- 
ings of  the  State  University,  kindly  loaned  for  this  work,  and  to  the 
Stationery  Department  of  the  Southern  Pacific  Company  for  some  engravings 
of  California  Scenery;  to  Geo.  Spaulding  &  Co.  for  engravings  from  "  Fifty 
Years  of  Masonry,"  and  to  the  business  community  who  have  so  generously 
supported  this  work. 
Krror.— In  the  Bazaar  Booth  of  Cal.  Commandery,  on  page  199,  the  names  of  Mrs.  X,ogan,  Mrs.  Dorn  and 
Mrs.  Batkin  were  inadvertantly  omitted.
